I'm afraid I'm a little rebellious. At this time, I don't label in French (it's been a peeve for years; I live in BRITISH Columbia!). Where did you find a link to what must be on a label?

I am in BC as well! I found the information on the government website. However, when I search people’s products on Etsy, I have never seen them do everything. Their are SO many requirements and are so specific like certain amount of space between certain things, font size, etc.

I try to meet as many of the standards I can, but space is limited. I don't put both languages on for that reason. I cant get all my ingredients in with English only when I do a bar loaded with all the goodies.

Hey MissChief
I am in oyama. You selling in KTown? I have my items in a few stores but mostly on the Rez and am now just getting legal myself. Would love to chit chat with a local girl to bounce ideas off of.
Here's your info.

Any time, @sherrig. I only sell at two local markets, one of them for the past 6 years

I have to say-- don't go by what people on Etsy do. People on Etsy also make all kinds of medical claims about their soap, or sell soaps with Disney characters on them.
